705dde27c6c53b73d2aa139b5b2a0ea490153e5b backup-top: Refuse I/O in inactive state
When the backup-top node transitions from active to inactive in
bdrv_backup_top_drop(), the BlockCopyState is freed and the filtered
child is removed, so the node effectively becomes unusable.
However, noone told its I/O functions this, so they will happily
continue accessing bs->backing and s->bcs. Prevent that by aborting
early when s->active is false.
(After the preceding patch, the node should be gone after
bdrv_backup_top_drop(), so this should largely be a theoretical problem.
But still, better to be safe than sorry, and also I think it just makes
sense to check s->active in the I/O functions.)
